    Watched the first video, saw a part where Calzaghe threw about 5-6 arm punches @ Hopkins in a row but the only thing being replayed 50x over was Hopkins landing a single right hand then clinching.

    Gave it a miss after that, sorry. Bias video is clearly bias, come back when you have a video that has no motive aka it highlights the success and failures of BOTH fighters not just replaying single shots by one of them over and over.

      And please stop claiming 'fact' like you're the single authority on these matters. if the majority of people disagree with you you're in the minority there's no two ways about it.
      hahaha, this guy is a low blow denier!!!! can't admit that fact that calzaghe hit hopkins low? and also has the audacity to say hopkins was faking it? so? you don't think hopkins should've been given time to put his piece back in his cup? since calzaghe knocked it out, and that was the closest calzaghe got to not only landing cleanly in the fight but it was the closest he was going to get to a ko in that fight other than almost getting ko'd. sorry to burst your bubble, but i don't have lying eyes, calzaghe hit hopkins in the wenis and you have no clue as to how it felt, so quit acting like youre the official on ****knocks.....

      great videos i've been saying this since the fight, that calzaghe landed nothing clean and was picked apart all fight long. i didn't need replays to tell me that, i saw with my own eyes. i was there, live, row I, 9 rows back, surrounded by calzaghe fans and more than half of them admitted that hopkins won the fight and said that he got jobbed in the decision. and i greatly appreciate their honesty because if the fight were the other way around, i would be saying the same thing, i would admit the fighter i was rooting for lost, i've done it before and will do it again.

      bottom line, calzaghe didn't want to box anymore after fighting hopkins, the jones fight was a gimme payday before i vacate the sport type fight, the fight that should've happened 10 years past. it was a sham of a fight and should've been a rematch with hopkins. either way, joe is gone, sad to say, because i do like calzaghe, it's just he actually lost to hopkins ,IN A REAL FIGHT, not a political agenda string pulling fight, which was obvious to anyone who watched the build up to the fight and listened as the fight went on. it was again, hopkins vs the establishment, not hopkins vs his opponent.......... just like the taylor fights, those were clear cut hopkins wins, again to be jobbed by the good old boy network.........

        yes he threw 5-6 punches at hopkins but did any actually land? no. and the only clean punch landed was a hopkins right hand which is hard to see because calzaghe is slapping air furiously so it's slowed down to show you. not biased at all. the videos clearly show each guy having success it's just hopkins had much more. you just can't believe what you are seeing. you've convinced yourself calzaghe was landing when he wasn't.

          Pretty boring fight so I doubt I will watch it again anytime soon, but I thought Calzaghe won. Close fight either way.

            hopkins dominated round 2. only seemed to clinch? see that's why you need to watch the videos. he landed a number of hard clean punches that you obviously didn't see. calzaghe landed a couple grazing punches. no possible way he won this round.

            round 10 hopkins dominated as well. you felt calzaghe did a little more but if you watched the videos you would see hopkins did a lot more. judges aren't supposed to score rounds based on if a guy takes time for low blows. calzaghe punched hopkins in the balls why does hopkins lose the round because of this?

            if you are gonna score a fight you really need to pay attention and have no bias.
            I'll agree with you on the low blow round, I might have been bias in that instance.

            Regardless of that round (2) though, Calzaghe still won it IMO. He did enough, threw more and landed more. Hopkins landed good shots but Calzaghe was too busy and that was to my liking.

            Not dening this fight could have gone either way because it could have (and I'm a big Calzaghe fan) but as already said, he was busier, landed more (although not as cleanly) and pushed the fight.

            Hopkins had a good game plan but lost IMO.

            But he's still an ATG IMO regardless.

              but he didn't win if you score round by round. have you watched the videos? it's impossible to give 6 rounds to calzaghe when he was severely outlanded in at least 6 rounds(more actually but for arguments sake.). don't be fooled by compubox. he was busier and pushed the fight sure but he was also outlanded in real punches. hopkins landed a lot more punches than you think it's just you missed them and calzaghe landed a lot less than you think. just throwing punches isn't a scoring criteria. calzaghe was busy running into counters yes but was not busy landing punches.

                Clear and decisive win for Joe. He schooled Hopkins who got extremely lucky with one shot to score a flash KD. Other than that Hopkins didn't have the stamina to compete.

                  Calzaghe got his ass schooled in that fight big time. I didn't even think it was a close fight. I wasn't even rooting for Hopkins that night either, I was hoping Calzaghe would win. And was still kind of rooting for him after Hopkins acted like a **** at the end of the fight by falling on the ground acting like he died. Hopkins should've won the fight though. No doubt.
